At that price!! your better of getting a shop to do it. Cyclopedia in Cardiff did mine.I took the cassette and freehub off and supplied my own bearings.They charged me £8 to remove the old bearings and fit the new ones.
So if you're in Cardiff you've got a choice of two shops as we had to buy the tool to service a bike we sold, well worth buying as we've used it twice now in 10yrs:)
thanks guys, but anyone with said tool in Yorkshire?
I've got one - it used to be a fair bit cheaper than that - I'm down on the Manchester side of the Peak District. Whereabouts in Yorkshire are you?
BWD - I'm north wakefield.
stif in leeds reckon they can do it, spose I'll pay them then buy more hope pro2 when it goes again (got all the tools to service them)
It's not like it's even a really beautiful tool. I mean it's not like a Shimano wooden-handled chain tool or the Campag 11-speed one, it's basically just a splined thing like. God only knows why it's so ridiculously overpriced. Good hubs though.
